Shen Yue looked at the guy in front of her with disgust and anger, but she did not dare underestimate these opponents.
She gripped her daggers tightly, eyeing the opponent that she wanted to target.
If she could charm the fatty and attack the woman along with Mei Mei, then they could easily finish her off and help Derek tackle the other berserker.
She quickly made the mental calculations and signaled Mei Mei while simultaneously using her [Beguile] skill.
At the same time, Barret as well rammed forward with a green aura enriching his strength. It looked like he had the same idea as he directly pushed to take out the weakest link, Mei Mei.
But Derek blocked him, and the two tanks ended up butting heads against each other. Shen Yue saw that and hurriedly cast her spell. The first time hadn't worked out.
"Cool. Cool. Calm down, pretty lady. Your charm won't work on me." Madan laughed and took out a shining gun.
Bang. Without a single wrinkle in his movements, he steadily took out the gun and pressed the trigger.
But Shen Yue wasn't exactly slow either. The moment she saw that her spell was not working, she had already started working on her next move.
Both the hunter and the healer should equally be weak against close combat, so either of them was a good target.
However, before she could make a choice, the decision was already taken for her.
She twisted her body and rolled on the ground to avoid the bullets, immediately jumping up and running towards the fat guy.
"Ba Ha Ha Ha Ha! This is the best fight ever! Oh my god! How can someone look so sexy? But I am sorry, miss. I am a little hard to get. You first have to play with my pets."
Madan ducked out, easily evading Shen Yue's daggers, and resummoned all of his pets one after the other.
Shen Yue gritted her teeth and quickly backed away from the huge beasts that spawned in front of her, every single one of them barring their teeth at her.
Liam was correct. These players were not the normal opponents.
Shen Yue gritted her teeth and fought with the hound, the bear, and two things that looked like a mash-up of weird creatures.
Meanwhile, Mei Mei and Anya were busily throwing spells at each other. Mei Mei had more offensive spells, and Anya had more defensive spells, so they were essentially at a stalemate.
And just like that, Barret and Derek were also evenly matched. Shen Yue's gaze flitted over to them briefly before settling back on the beasts surrounding her.
However, just as she did, she noticed something from the corner of her eyes. There were… two Dereks…
Shen Yue was completely stunned. She, of course, recognized this technique. Derek learned that by just sparring with Liam for one day?
And just how long had it taken for Liam to learn the same thing?
What were these guys? Monsters?
At this rate, she would never ever be able to reach them, stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Shen Yue gripped her hand and spun her body around faster.
If Derek was using this technique, she wanted to use his momentum and take out at least one of them.
She sparred with the beasts surrounding her, and at the same time, she tried to get closer to the berserker.
"Not so fast." Madan noticed this instantly and grinned as he shot forward several arrows toward the woman.
Shen Yue's speed was already reduced, and with four beasts on her trail, she was not able to budge. Unless…
She made a quick decision and dodged only some of the attacks while taking the rest head on. She then ran as fast as she could and used [Beguile] on Barret.
Even though what she did was very abrupt, the berserker only sneered at her as a thick red aura enveloped him. It looked like he was already prepared for it.
Shen Yue's efforts were wasted, and she hurriedly downed a health potion, once again dancing around and fighting the four beasts that did not let go of her.
Madan also did not give her any room for escape, and he shot forward another batch of arrows. These ones were weirdly glowing yellow.
"Yes, these are my custom-made arrows. Aren't I awesome? Beauty, it's not too late. I can still marry you. Ha Ha Ha."
Between the beasts and the arrows, Shen Yue was completely trapped. Seeing that she had locked herself, Derek made a move.
He aggroed three of the four beasts surrounding her and gave Shen Yue some breathing room, but this led to him getting pushed back, and Barret did not let the chance slip by landing two heavy attacks on him.
Shen Yue bit her lips. She felt like she was really useless if her charm did not work, and she hated it. She did not want to be a dead weight.
She was tired of being weak and helpless. She waved her dagger around, blocking the attacks from the hunter.
Since she started playing the game and learning how to fight, she had improved leaps and bounds, but it was still not enough.
She was still weak and useless.
No. I should stay calm. Shen Yue reminded herself and prepared to use the last two powerful attacks in her arsenal.
If she was going to die here, she was going to take someone along with her. A L L-N O V E L-F ULL
And just as she prepared to cast [Mesmerize], suddenly another idea struck her. She had tried her [Beguile] skill on the hunter and the berserker, but what about the healer?
She saw Anya completely involved in her fight with Mei Mei, the two women both verbally and physically assaulting each other.
She only had one chance at this. In a split second, she used her finishing move [Blade Dance] and diverted Madan's attention while simultaneously arriving next to Anya.
And then…
[Beguile]
Bingo! It worked!
Shen Yue grinned as she quickly made the healer attack the hunter. "Mei Mei, help Derek! Now!"
Though very much shocked, the little girl understood what was happening and she immediately changed her target.
Shen Yue then turned to the hunter who had pretty much toyed with her for the past few minutes. She might not be as strong as him, but along with Anya, she definitely was.
